UCL launches talent bank for graduates

10 January 2013

Do
you have an intern vacancy or a position that you would like a UCL graduate to
fill?

UCL
Careers Service is launching UCL Talent Bank, which is a targeted service
designed to source relevant UCL students for vacancies/placements that UCL
alumni and UCL departments would like to fill, as well as graduate
roles/internships in SMEs (Small & Medium Enterprises).

The
talent bank will source opportunities and advertise them, putting together a
shortlist of relevant and interested students, which will then be handed over
to the recruiter. In return, they ask for feedback: the recruiters will tell them
if any of the students have been successful in securing the role or invited for
interview. At the same time, the careers service will offer shortlisted
students support and coaching to maximise their chances of success.

Vacancies
need to comply with minimum wage legislation or they won’t be able to advertise
them. However there are exceptions such as registered charities and they will
be happy to discuss all opportunities.
